“At a time when the threat of nuclear arms is again increasing, the Norwegian Nobel Committee wishes to underline that this threat must be met through the broadest possible international cooperation. This principle finds its clearest expression today in the work of the IAEA and its Director General. In the nuclear non-proliferation regime, it is the IAEA which ensures that nuclear energy is not misused for military purposes, and the Director General has stood out as an unafraid advocate of new measures to strengthen that regime.” TodayPurposeEnergyWishPrinciplesMilitaryExpressionArmsMetsDirectorsThreatInternationalNuclearCooperationRegimesCommitteesNobelProliferationUnafraidMisusedNorwegiansNuclear EnergyNuclear ArmsInternational Cooperation Author:Mohamed ElBaradei
“Any evaluation which implies rightness or wrongness is a tragic, suicidal expression of an unmet need. Tragic, first because it decreases our likelihood of getting our need met! Even if we think it. And secondly, because it increases the likelihood of violence. That's why I'm suggesting any evaluation which implies rightness or wrongness is a tragic, suicidal expression of an unmet need. Say the need! Learn a need-consciousness.” IfsThinkingNeedsFirstsConsciousnessViolenceExpressionCommunicationMetsIncreaseTragicSuicidalDecreaseNonviolent CommunicationSuggestingEvaluationLikelihoodUnmet Needs Author:Marshall B.

“When I tell people I work to stop hazing in high schools I am almost always met with shocked expressions. "High school? Really? I thought that was something that only arrogant frat guys do in college." But it's true - as long as I have worked on preventing bullying in high schools, I have worked to prevent hazing.” PeopleLongSchoolGuyCollegeExpressionMetsHigh SchoolBullyingArrogantShockedPreventingHazing Author:Rosalind Wiseman
“There's a disciplined erotic component to it, so that the height of sexual contact is the embrace, the modest touch, a relatively chaste kiss. An important passage from the surviving 1942 diary (one I quote in the book) relates this mode of sexual expression to his own life. Mann had returned to his diary for 1927 (one of those he burned) and to his parting from the young man, Klaus Heuser, whom the family had met on holiday and invited to Munich.” MenImportantBookYoungExpressionMetsKissingEmbraceContactRelateHeightYoung ManHolidayPassagesBurnedModestInvitedComponentsEroticSurvivingDiariesPartingChasteMunich Author:Philip Kitcher
